After nearly 30 years of carrying I wear my pancake holster with the belt going around my S&W Shield Plus pistol in 30SC with a Shield SMSc red dot. The belt pulls it into the body and lowers the chance for imprinting. It draws flawlessly. I'm wearing Mernickle Belt and Low-Rise holster. I also have DefGripUSA.com's rubber grips on the pistol which have tons of grip without tearing my belly to pieces (I put Def Grips on all of my competition pistols too. I love them!)
I wear my 340PD .357 Mag snubby the same way when I have a belt on or in a DeSantis SOF-TUK when wearing drawstring pants or shorts.
